DC Jack Problems on Dell Inspiron 1100

Expand Post »

I'm trying to replace a DC jack on a Dell Inspiron 1100. The thing is, I can't get the old jack off of the board. I'm wondering if I need to be more patient with the soldering iron or if there is another way.

Thanks

There's a relatively inexpensive device available at most electronic stores that sucks up the melted solder. Removal should be easier then.
